If you're underclass and beat up on by society above you, stoicism is a very rational philosophy to adopt.

If you're upper crust and controlling everyone beneath you, I think it's still worthwhile to consider stoicism. Or is there some kind of divide - if one is poor you should enact one set of philosophies, if you're rich and powerful one should enact different philosophies?

Will that help your situation?
